Need help designing a LOGO

**JerrSun** · 01-04-2007 04:50 PM

Need some recommendations for help designing a Logo for my business. I was wondering if anyone here knows of any good companies or freelancers who could help me out.

I've done some research online and found many design companies out there who will do my logo from $100 and up but wasn't to sure about the quality of the work on the cheaper ones. I don’t mind spending money on quality work but nor do I want to get gouged in the process. Can anyone give me a ball park figure for the cost to design a logo and Business Cards.

Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give me.

Hi!

I designed this logo: http://www.aretechristianacademy.com/ --- to give you an idea of the quality of my work.

If you would like to see what I can do for you, send me a private message.

Otherwise, I would highly recommend http://www.yoggin.com . They designed the logo at http://www.izoka.com back when I owned that site.

Well what kind of logo are you looking for. There might be someone here willing to do it for you for a small price. I play around with some graphics myself (sorry nothing to show off.) but my graphics deal more with animation.

Try Logo Yes. On the site, you will find tools about what image you want to project which affects the design of your logo.

Plus you get 250 free business cards if you design using their web application.

Hello JerrSun

Logo's are something you should be willing to splurge a bit on. A good one will last through the entire life of your business and help build your brand.

I paid 200 for mine, click on one of the links in my signature to see it. Simple but creative at the same time.

If you want to see more work by designer check out http://thesonoran.com. The owner of this business made my logo for me. You should be able to contact him through this site.

Good luck man!

Yeah I can do it for you for £40 I think that's about $75. Here is a pic of my last business card and logo. To be honest it's a business card and logo you want not a complete PR campaign, so I won't patronise you with list of awards, as after all your only as good as your last project. The logo would of course reflect the business's identity and be professional. It would be great to help out another young entrepreneur.

Cheers, Chester

PS
E-mail if the pic doesn’t show up in the forum

I used an excellent firm called The NetMenCorp. I found them on eblance.com

http://www.thenetmencorp.com/index.html

I couldn't be happier with the outcome. A+++ service.

Thank you all for your reply's and advice. My original idea/concept for my site is being shelved for another project. My current need right now is for a domain that would work well for a etailer site specialising in selling Laptop Bags and Mobile Device accessories. Once I have the domain that I want, I will revisit all the recommendations provided above for the Logo and possible site design.

So if anyone has a good domain for sale that would fufill my needs please dont hesitate to contact me.

**Dale King** · 01-08-2007 08:16 AM

Check out the logo on my site.

My URL is in my sig file.

If you like my logo, it was designed by Biz-Logo.com.

I highly recommend them.

Go on namepros etc and go on the logo design area. State what you want and how much your offering. You'll get a few responses with banners and then you pay the person for the banner you want.

Also i recommend www.thehivedesigns.com - a member of namepros also. A very good designer, although i haven't used him yet i will be using him in the very near future.

Peter,

I have a logo that I have created but I need a little help finishing the logo. I was wondering if it is possible for me to send you the logo and get your help adding some finishing touches. Let me know if I could send you the logo I am on a tight budget and your price looks great. Steve
